In the new study, the team used the model to demonstrate that as Alzheimer's pathology accumulates in the brain, specific types of immune cells called CT8+ T Cells surge into the brain and amplify the ...

Wearing blue rubber gloves, Molly Dobrow reached into a metal vat of diluted sodium hydroxide and pulled out two dripping-wet models of human organs: a heart and a set of lungs. Made of Elastico, a ...

Researchers from Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and the Leiden-based biotech company Ncardia have joined forces to ...

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) represent a profound challenge to global health, characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction and loss, leading to ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

UVM Medical Center uses 3D printing to create low-cost medical training models for rural Vermont paramedics and EMTs. These models offer more frequent practice opportunities for crucial, but ...

Researchers have developed a smartphone app that uses machine learning to accurately determine body composition—which is linked to a higher risk of heart disease, stroke and related conditions—from ...

For decades, animal models have been the gold standard for preclinical testing of potential drugs. Yet, even the best animal models are not perfect. For example, small rodent species with engrafted ...
